The car had not yet reached Rose Valley when Abigail received a call from Brandon Piers.
"Why are you so disobedient?" The man on the other end was very dissatisfied as soon as she picked up.
Abigail laughed. She had anticipated this reaction. "I'm just accompanying Dora for her birthday. There won't be any danger. I'll wait for you to pick me up after you're done with Benjamin."
With Dora by her side, Abigail didn't say much.
Brandon was very unhappy, but Pullan had thoroughly reported the situation to him. Though unwilling, he knew what was happening. Since things were already decided, he didn't say much more.
After hanging up Brandon's call, the car slowly entered Rose Valley.
Hughes clearly knew the direction of Joshua Piers's villa, and they arrived quickly.
Dora held Abigail's hand as they got out of the car. Her little face was full of joy, evidently looking forward to her birthday.
